Is Mid Abdominal Pressure Post Gallbladder Surgery Normal?
Hello, It is quite normal and doesn’t indicate any medical conditions. As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult a general surgeon and plan for an ultrasound scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
